I would rather prefer FIXME/TODO.
ideally a key: TODO: name
or FIXME: trace, name
Ideally this should be normalized (like above), so that the web-pages can 
directly ask visitors to contribute. (I can't ask my mother to add new ways, 
but if there's a message: "do you know the way's name" she could actively 
contribute.
the Note-tag could then add some more lines (like "bad reception on my 
GPS...").
But a FIXME/TODO with normalized entries could be really valuable.
